1 Corinthians 2
1 My fellow believers, when I came to you, I proclaimed to you the message that God had revealed to me. But I did not proclaim it using eloquent words that would make people think highly of me, nor did I argue in a way that unbelievers would think was very wise.
Así que, hermanos, cuando yo vine a vosotros, no vine con excelencia de palabra o de sabiduría, para anunciaros el testimonio de Cristo.
2 I did that because I decided that I would speak only about Jesus Christ. Specifically, I told you [what he accomplished for us when] he was killed by being nailed {[when they] killed him by nailing him} to a cross.
Porque había determinado no saber cosa alguna entre vosotros, sino a Jesu Cristo, y a éste crucificado.
3 Furthermore, when I was with you, I felt that I was not adequate [to do what Christ wanted me to do]. I was afraid [that I would not be able to do it], and because of that I was trembling very much.
Y estuve yo entre vosotros con flaqueza, y con temor, y mucho temblor;
4 When I taught you and preached to you, I did not speak words that [unbelievers would consider] [IRO] wise in order to convince them that my message was true. Instead, [God’s] Spirit showed that it was true by [enabling me to] powerfully [perform miracles].
Y ni mi palabra ni mi predicación fue con palabras persuasivas de humana sabiduría, sino con demonstración del Espíritu y con poder;
5 [I taught and preached that way] in order that you might believe [my message], not because you heard words that people [considered to be] [IRO] wise, but [because you recognized] God’s power.
Para que vuestra fe no sea en sabiduría de hombres, mas en poder de Dios.
6 I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn g165)
Empero hablamos sabiduría entre los que son perfectos; y sabiduría, no de este siglo, ni de los príncipes de este siglo, que vienen a nada; (aiōn g165)
7 Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn g165)
Mas hablamos la sabiduría misteriosa de Dios, es a saber, la sabiduría ocultada: la que Dios predestinó antes de los siglos para nuestra gloria, (aiōn g165)
8 None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn g165)
La que ninguno de los príncipes de este siglo conoció; porque si la conocieran, nunca crucificaran al Señor de gloria; (aiōn g165)
9 But [we believers need to remember these words that a prophet] wrote [in the Scriptures]: Things that no one has ever seen, things that no one ever heard, things that no one ever thought could happen, those are the things that God has prepared for those who love him.
Antes, como está escrito: Ni ojo vio, ni oído oyó, ni en corazón de hombre subió lo que Dios preparó para los que le aman.
10 God has caused his Spirit to reveal those things to us [(inc)] believers. His Spirit can do that because he knows thoroughly the meaning of all things. He even knows the things about God that are very difficult to understand.
Empero Dios nos lo reveló a nosotros por su Espíritu; porque el Espíritu todo lo comprende, aun las profundidades de Dios.
11 Only a person himself (OR, a person’s spirit) knows what he is thinking. Similarly, only God’s Spirit knows what God is thinking.
Porque ¿quién de los hombres sabe las cosas que son del hombre, sino el espíritu del mismo hombre que está en él? así tampoco nadie conoció las cosas que son de Dios, sino el Espíritu de Dios.
12 It was not the ideas that unbelievers teach that we accepted. Instead, it was the Spirit who came from God that we received, in order that we might know the things that God has freely done for us.
Y nosotros hemos recibido no el espíritu del mundo, sino el Espíritu que es de Dios; para que conozcamos lo que Dios nos ha dado.
13 Those are the things that I tell you about. As I do that, I do not tell you things that someone [whom others thought] was [IRO] wise taught me. Instead, I tell you truths that [God’s] Spirit taught [me], and I explain those spiritual truths to people whose thinking is guided by God’s Spirit (OR, I teach spiritual [truths to] spiritual [people]).
Lo cual también hablamos no con palabras que enseña la humana sabiduría, sino en las que enseña el Espíritu Santo, acomodando lo espiritual a lo espiritual.
14 Those who are unbelievers reject the truths that [God’s] Spirit teaches us [(inc)], because they [consider those truths to be] foolish. They cannot understand them, because it is God’s Spirit who enables us to evaluate those truths correctly, [and those people do not have God’s Spirit].
Mas el hombre natural no percibe las cosas que son del Espíritu de Dios; porque le son insensatez; ni las puede conocer, porque son espiritualmente examinadas.
15 We who have God’s Spirit can judge correctly the [value of] all truths [that the Spirit reveals], but [unbelievers] cannot evaluate us correctly.
Empero el espiritual examina (ciertamente) todas las cosas; mas él de nadie es examinado.
16 As [one of our prophets wrote: ] No human [RHQ] has known what the Lord is thinking. No human [RHQ] is able to instruct him. But we believers are able to think about things [MTY] in the way that Christ thinks about them.
Porque ¿quién conoció la mente del Señor, para que le instruyese? Mas nosotros tenemos entendida la mente de Cristo.
